as mr trump was formally charged with trying to overturn the result of the last presidential election in the state. what has taken place here is a travesty ofjustice, we did nothing wrong, i did nothing wrong, and everybody knows it. i've never had such support. but mr trump faces 13 charges in georgia, including racketeering and conspiracy to commit forgery. also this lunchtime — gas and electricity bills are to fall slightly in england, scotland, and wales, as the energy price cap is lowered. the kremlin says claims it brought down the plane carrying wagner boss yevgeny prigozhin are an absolute lie. and the head of the spanish football federation refuses to resign after kissing a world cup winner on the lips — he says it was mutual.

with a week left in the transfer window, liverpool saint mohamed salah is going nowhere. he has been linked with a move to saudi arabia. —— liverpool are saying mohamed salah is going nowhere. good afternoon. it's a photograph that will go down in history — the first police mugshot of a former us president. donald trump's picture was taken at the fulton countyjail in atlanta as he was formally charged with election interference in the state of georgia. he's one of 19 people accused of racketeering and trying to overturn his presidential election defeat in the state in 2020. mr trump had his fingerprints taken before being released on bail of $200,000. he says the case against him is "a travesty ofjustice." sean dilley sent this report.

a snapshot in history. this is the first mugshot ever taken of anyone accused of committing crimes as us president. it is not the first time donald trump has been booked, but in his three other criminal cases, he has been excused photographing. he is, after all, one of the most recognisable people on the planet. donald trump entered the jail house just after 7:30pm local time. he was technically in custody for less than half an hour, released on a $200,000 bond. what has taken place here is a travesty ofjustice. we did nothing wrong, i did nothing wrong, and everybody knows it. i have never had such support. and that goes with the other ones, too, what they are doing is election interference. they are trying to interfere with an election. there has never been anything like it in our country before. this is their way of campaigning. fulton county sheriff said that donald trump would be treated like any other prisoner.

but if you look over my shoulder here, you can see certainly the security operation is huge. police vehicles, helicopters, drones for blocks around the jail. now, part of that is because he is a former president, part of that is down to the protesters and counter protesters. these donald trump supporters among those who believe, in the face of all of the evidence to the contrary, thatjoe biden lost the last election. for these trump supporters, it is all part of a sinister plot to rob him of the white house. the rights of americans are being stripped away. today is one of the most obvious, obvious versions of it that are going on while we are putting a former president in jail. he firmly believes — like we do, too — the election was not fair, was not transparent, it is lacking integrity. if donald trump was laying on the beach right now, i on his beach playing golf, this wouldn't be - happening behind us. how do you know that? i know it for a fact. how? because i am an intelligent person. how will history remember donald trump?

as a criminal, and hopefully a convicted criminal. if for some reason he gets to be president because the dumb people in this country who are not using their brain cells elect him, i am going to fight against it for the next four years. i am hoping that this gets reported in history, i am hoping that this is one of the last times that we have to hear from this individual and the people that he represents, but i'm not sure that it will be. this will be a day america remembers. the first of a kind photograph destined for museum walls and the history books. sean dilley, bbc news, in fulton county, georgia. live now to our correspondent barbara plett usher, who's in atlanta. mr trump seems quite proud of this mugshot, almost like it's a badge of honour. he is not treating it as a badge of shame. it was clearly very important for him to project strength, that is

what he is trying to do. you can see that in that menacing glare. he is making the most of it, he has already adopted it as a campaign emblem under that slogan, never surrender. he has posted it on social media. he is using it extensively for fundraising. social media. he is using it extensively forfundraising. but social media. he is using it extensively for fundraising. but i don't think this is an experience that he wanted. he has managed to avoid getting his mugshot taken so far even though he has been indicted on criminal charges four times, and he faces the possibility of serious jail time —— he faces the possibility of serious jailtime —— he he faces the possibility of serious jail time —— he faces the possibility. i think this one brought home to him the fact that it is a criminal case, he was booked in a jail as well as the mugshot. you spend as little time as possible there, his lawyer so that the paperwork ahead of time, and he now has an inmate number. so this image means that the moment is going to live on. as campaigners are saying it will go down in history as a symbol of american defiance against

tyranny, but his opponents would say that it should go down in history as a symbol that nobody is above the law. �* ., ., a symbol that nobody is above the energy bills will be slightly cheaperfor 29 million households in england, scotland, and wales. the energy regulator, 0fgem, has announced a new price cap from october. the average annual household bill will fall by £151 tojust over £1,900. the drop is because of lower wholesale gas prices, though average bills will still be much higher than two years ago. 0ur cost of living correspondent colletta smith has been guaging opinions at a theme park. not many of us are prepared to face this autumn head—on. thomas and jay are brothers, and like so many, they have been struggling to keep the bills under control in their homes. but in different ways. jay runs a barber shop, and he and andrea pay for their energy via direct debit. we are still in arrears now, yeah,

but we are going to get back on top of it, ready for this winter. so that's all we can do, yeah. thomas and his partner jenny are both nurses, and they are on a prepayment meter. it's going to be the same this year, and obviously we are worried about it. we are thinking ahead. like, we have got a sort of plan financially, especially with the mortgage on top. i mean, we are on a good wage, me and my partner, so i feel sorry for the people who are getting paid minimum wage. that's the people who i am sort of thinking about coming into this winter. today's announcement limits the gas and electricity unit prices which energy companies are allowed to charge almost all households in britain, and the cap is going down — but not by much. so a year and a half ago, people were paying around £1,200 a yearfor their bills, but then gas per unit in the market was about 50% of the sort of prices we are seeing this winter, and that is why prices still remain high. because we are not getting that extra government support this year,

that £66 in monthly payments, despite the small drop in price, what we are all paying out this winter is going to feeljust as tough as last year. labour said the government is not doing enough to help while costs are still so high, but the government say they are still giving extra to those struggling most. pensioners are receiving an extra £300 this winter, alongside their winter fuel payment, and everyone on universal credit is receiving £900 in direct cost of living support because i want to make sure the most vulnerable in our society do get that extra help. but campaigners say that is not enough to help those most in need. we are really concerned about that. we know that single parents are already very worried. they are using credit to pay for basics like food. we know that the complexities around energy and increasing energy debt is going to make a really complex situation a whole lot worse. there are lots of useful tips about how to keep energy bills down in your home on the bbc

news tackling it together pages. because we can't breathe easy yet. another price rise is still on the cards when the regulator decides the new rates forjanuary. colletta smith, bbc news, at gulliver's world in warrington. joining me now is our business correspondent marc ashdown. what's the longer term picture on energy bills? what can we expect? i think ithinka i think a bit more stability, firstly. analysts can predict about a year in advance, and we are now hearing that the cap will stay at around this level, £1,900, until the end of 2024 with a few seasonal ups and downs. that is a lot less than the eye watering productions we had last year of up to £6,000 a year potentially, but still more or less double what we were paying back in 2021 just two years ago. in terms of

affordability, yes, bills are coming down, but remember everybody last year was getting at £400 help from the government spread over six months, that has now stopped, some of the rents and mortgages in food or going up as well, i think you could see as much if not more walking out the door in terms of bills as you did last year. and remember the cap as well as for averages, so if you use more, you pay more. it is important to be energy smart, try to cut down if you can. charities are very worried that millions of people are already in arrears, having to borrow on credit cards or loans in order to pay this essential bill. as such —— i should say 3 million households will still get some help from the government, and if you're struggling it is important to contact your supplier to discuss your options, all of those driven by global gas prices, which are unlikely to come down anytime soon, so difficult to predict too far into the future, but experts say this level could be where we are for about the next decade. . ~ where we are for about the next decade. ., ~ , ., where we are for about the next decade. . ~' , ., , where we are for about the next decade. . ~' ,, , . where we are for about the next decade. ., ~ i. , . . decade. thank you very much, marc. marc ashdown. _

in russia, the kremlin says claims that it ordered the assassination of the the wagner mercenary group leader yevgeny prigozhin are an "absolute lie." mr prigozhin and nine other people died in a plane crash this week, two months after he led a failed uprising. live now to our moscow reporter will vernon, and will, this statement today from the kremlin came in response to a question you put to president putin's spokesman. yes, i was on a conference call it a little earlier with president putin's spokesman. this something that happens most days in moscow with a select group of foreign and russian journalists, with a select group of foreign and russianjournalists, where with a select group of foreign and russian journalists, where you with a select group of foreign and russianjournalists, where you can more or less ask any question you want, really. iasked more or less ask any question you want, really. i asked the spokesperson what his reaction was to accusations of various western officials that it was the kremlin that was behind that plane crashed two days ago, that reportedly killed yevgeny prigozhin. 0f two days ago, that reportedly killed yevgeny prigozhin. of course, does notjust yevgeny prigozhin. of course, does not just western officials, yevgeny prigozhin. of course, does notjust western officials, who believe that, many russians think it as well. this is what he told me, he

said that those claims were a complete lie, and he said that when we talk about this issue, we should be guided only by fax. we don't have many facts at the moment, the facts need to be clarified during the official investigation which is being carried out now. so echoing some of those remarks by president putin last night, he also called for president two people to await the official investigation. now, will that clear and i'll convince those at home and abroad who believe that the russian authorities were somehow involved in the wagon boss of�*s killing? —— will that clear denial convince those? i don't think it will. the kremlin's default response to any accusations is a denial. at the beginning of 2022 when russian troops built up on the board of ukraine, there were many accusations then that the kremlin was preparing to invade ukraine —— on the border of ukraine. what was the kremlin's

very happy days. that's my mother and father on a cruise. for liz, these photos provide precious memories of her mother, margaret. when her mum found it hard to get around, she moved to a care home, but she was still sharp. and this is also, i think, a lovely photograph. this is my mother in her care home. margaret died there during the first wave of the pandemic, aged 95. she had always kept a diary, so documented her daily life. this was a particularly special diary for me because it is the last one that she wrote. liz is one of the relatives taking legal action against the government and others over what she sees as a failure to properly protect care home residents like her mum from covid. she believes the diary tells that story. this one is dated march 3, tuesday. she felt pretty good, but the staff situation was bad. in march 2020, as the virus took

hold, care providers weren't —— in march 2020, as the virus took hold, care providers warned they needed more protective equipment, testing and government guidance. hospital patients were also discharged into care homes without testing or isolation. margaret's family claimed that included into her home. in april 2020, as covid deaths in care homes peaked, margaret writes that her care staff have just started wearing masks. the 20th of april is the first day for masks. and then 21st of april, all wearing masks. on may 4th, after a few days of feeling breathless, margaret again writes in her diary. oh, dear. the 4th of may. a matron came 10:30—10:45, and shejust writes, "i have the virus." and that is her last entry. kind of hits you quite hard, really. margaret died in hospital on may 14th. the following day, the health and social care secretary made this

now well—known statement. right from the start, we have tried to throw a protective ring around our care homes. i felt that her care was completely lacking. and when i thought about it hard, i have to take it back to the government because, ultimately, we all put our trust and our faith in these public servants. the uk covid inquiry will examine what happened in care homes, but the lawyer representing the families says it will not look at individual cases. did the decisions cause or contribute to individuals losing their lives? and i would say that without the legal claims, the families will not get answers to their questions. the government says throughout it has tried to protect care home residents based on the best available evidence. alison holt, bbc news. a judge has ruled that statements

from military witnesses can to be used as evidence in the trial of solider f over bloody sunday in 1972. 13 people were shot dead when the parachute regiment opened fire on a civil rights march in londonderry. soldier f, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with two murders and five attempted murders. a drink—driver, who killed a charity cyclist and then hid his body in a shallow grave on a remote scottish estate, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison. alexander mckellar was speeding when he hit 63—year—old tony parsons, and left him to die on the a82 near bridge of 0rchy in 2017. mr parsons' remains weren't found for three years. british police are investigating the deaths of 88 people in the uk who bought a poisonous substance from a man in canada who's accused of helping people to take their own lives. kenneth law was arrested near toronto in may,

accused of assisting suicide and selling products to people in 40 countries around the world. the uk's national crime agency has launched an investigation. angus crawford reports. bright and kind. tom parfett was just 22 when he ended his life using a chemical he bought from a website in canada. his father, david, distraught and angry, says he should never have been able to get it. since my own son died, there has been, as you can imagine, a horrendous impact on my family and on his friends. but also i have been able to discuss with many other families the impact on them and their own lives, and of course also focused on us trying to get some justice for the deaths of our sons and daughters.

but also try and ensure that other families aren't impacted by similar. this is the man tom bought it from, kenneth law. now charged with assisting suicide. we are aware that packages were shipped to over 40 countries. the national crime agency now says 232 people in the uk —— the national crime agency now says 272 people in the uk bought from the canadian. 88 of them later died. and although it is not possible to say the chemical was the cause of death in every case, the nca has launched a criminal investigation. but how did they know about kenneth law and the chemical? here is the answer — pro suicide websites. we have been investigating this world for years. here, users encourage suicide, swap tips on methods, and suggest sellers like law, accessible to anyone

with a couple of clicks. we found one seller who offered us a package of chemicals and pills. new ones appear all the time. tom parfett, vulnerable and depressed, like many others looked for help online. instead, he found poison. angus crawford, bbc news. after the invasion of ukraine, britain and other western nations banned direct energy imports from russia. but there's new evidence that the uk has been buying jet fuel from refineries in india which use crude oilfrom russia. data from the campaign group, global witness, highlights a practice that is legal, but which raises ethical questions, as emir naderfrom bbc newsnight now reports. we're here in the peloponnese region in southern greece. this idyllic location has now become

a key artery for russian oil. we're just leaving greek territorial waters and we're approaching a number of tankers that have left russia. and we believe they're here to exchange russian crude. these two boats that you can see behind me here are oil tankers. the boat in the distance is from russia and it's moving oil to the boat that's nearest to us. here in international waters, this practice is legal. bbc newsnight has had exclusive access to numbers calculated by the campaign group global witness. since the g7, eu and australia introduced a ban on importing oil directly, in the first six months of 2023, the numbers show the amount of russian energy that's been processed in indian refineries and made its way to the uk legally since then, with its origins changing to india. in the six months since january, the uk imported 6.2 million barrels of refined energy from three indian refineries, made with an estimated 2.33 million

barrels of russian crude. the diesel is used to power uk planes. the figures are equivalent to one in eight of our flights using fuel from these refineries, or one in 20 british flights being powered purely by russian crude. so how much is this all worth to russia? according to the figures, in the first six months of 2023, the energy bought by the uk generated more than $122 million in revenue for russia, of which at least $50 million went directly to the kremlin in tax revenues. so, russia has essentiallyjust skirted around the sanctions. it is selling as much oil as it was before the war. big british firms like bp and shell are buying this jet fuel. bp said...

shell told us... while the uk government said... refining energy in a third country changes its legal origin. but this energy we're purchasing is still being produced with russian oil. emir nader, bbc news. 0nto the world athletics championships now, and great britain have high hopes for medals in the men's and women's 200 metres. last night, matthew hudson—smith got silver in the 400m. let's go live to our sports correspondent natalie pirks, who's in budapest for us now. it was a very big night for matthew
